Background
•
These technologies offer
new, effective, affordable
and inclusive pathways to
water security and
poverty reduction.
•
WASH contributes to
health and environmental
improvement and longterm social and economic
development.
Upholds participation. Cooperation. Capacity building. Enterprise creation. A platform for change
Initially reaching out to 29 ARCs prioritized as communities in greatest need of potable water
CPWASH models a theory-based intervention that addresses water, energy, health and promoted green
local economy.

Technologies
Community-managed Potable Water Sanitation and Hygiene (CPWASH) project between the
Department of Agrarian Reform [DAR] and the Philippine Center for Water and Sanitation [PCWS]
partnership since 2007.
Contributes to the MDG 7 related to reducing the huge proportion of people without access to safe
drinking water and improving sanitation.
Philippine Center for Water and Sanitation
About 1.1 million Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries’ households requires upgrading from the current level 1
water system to improve quality of water and sanitation.

Partnership Responsibilities
Objectives
• Philippine Center for Water and Sanitation (PCWS):
The CPWASH broadens opportunities through sustainable agribusiness and
rural enterprise development [SARED]. Congruent with MDGs No. 7 which
ensures environment sustainability and health concerns.
In a 6 to 8 months duration, Install low-cost water supply technology and
sanitation systems in an ARC:
1] Construct iron removal filter and bio-sand filter as water treatment facilities;
2] Build bio-gas digester septic tanks, rain-water collector and spring gravity
flow system for bio-fuel & sanitation; and
3] Create WASH focused enterprises such as hog-raising, vegetable gardening.
This leads to enhance agrarian reform beneficiary (ARBs) household’s access to
sanitation by improving the water supply and sanitation situation and livelihood
enterprise creation in the agrarian reform areas using low-cost, culturally
acceptable and appropriate WASH technologies that can be managed and
sustained by the community.

Replicability
Covered about 1,297 households, with a total of 8,858
users in ARCs accessed potable water, bio-gas, and
improved sanitation.
About 15 sites have engaged in WASH focused enterprises
that will contribute to increase household income,
improvement on productivity and profitable employment.
Community members share knowledge to other communities.
Implicitly implied, in the process of constructing the WATSAN
facilities
is shared growth.
Indeed, “for
•
Responding to the gap in meeting the
targets for water supply and sanitation by
2015, most in rural areas in the
Philippines,
15 new sites for CPWASH are
targeted for 2012 and more ARCs
until 2014.
Prosperity to be sustained it must be shared.”

WAY FORWARD: Enhancing WASH
Focused Livelihood in Agrarian
Reform Communities (ARCs)
•
Extensively promote environmental sanitation for lasting effects on the health and
well-being of ARCs.
•
Increase advocacy efforts for stronger support to ARCs from national government
agencies, LGUs, civil society, academe, media and donors.
•
Create markets for ARCs that are already capacitated with low-cost WASH
technologies.
Example:
If a critical mass of demand for wastewater treatment is created, small private
enterprises will emerge to respond to these new business opportunities. The Clean
Water Act could enhance such effort.
•
Biogas digesters built under this project are already producing methane gas from
livestock manure and other wastes. The next phase of the program could consider
up-scaling some facilities such as biogas digesters feeding power-plants to
generate local electricity. For this, some research has to be done. DAR can try to
enlist other government agencies, media, academe, relevant NGOs and donors to
do this.
